ABOUT
THE OWNER
Marc Kruskol, President and Founder of MJK PUBLIC RELATIONS.
I have
two decades of experience in the entertainment industry,
beginning in the public relations department of Columbia/TriStar
Pictures, where I worked on the publicity campaigns of over 75 films
along side a "Who's Who" of entertainment personalities and corporate
executives.
I then joined an independent public relations firm, eventually rising
to
the rank of Vice President, where I helped guide the campaigns of their
roster of films, corporations, personalities and the HATCHfest
audio-visual festival. I also participated in the awards
campaigns
for films including: Crash, Flags of Our Fathers,
Dreamgirls, Bobby, Miss
Potter, Memoirs
of a Geisha, Rent, Amelie, Breaking And
Entering, Iris, In The Bedroom and The
Aviator, among others. Additional, I coordinated the PR
efforts for a Direct-to-DVD production
and distribution company.
In
January of 2007, I formed MJK PUBLIC RELATIONS, representing
filmmakers, , pro wrestlers and other professional athletes, business
executives and experts in their fields, musicians (with regular, PAYING
gigs AND music available for purchase at stores and / or iTunes).
